From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
Welcome April! March came in like a lamb, but I think it is going out like a lion!! On Friday, we had a beautiful opportunity to partake as a whole school in the Consecration of Russia and Ukraine. After the Blessing with Archbishop Listecki, (simultaneously with Pope Francis) we moved to the Pope Francis portion and finished with our own Peace in Ukraine Prayer Service with Fr. Tony. It was a wonderful experience for our students and staff.
Included in this week’s newsletter is the draft of the School Calendar for 2022-23. As always, it is subject to change as dates for events become available. When planning vacations, please be cautious not to plan them during testing weeks.
We have many things happening in the weeks ahead. Please be sure to check the monthly calendar for updates.
This week we have Culver's night on Tuesday from 5-8pm. Come and enjoy dinner and fellowship and get your out of uniform pass that may be used on Thursday, March 31st.
Wednesday, March 30th is Birthday Blessing for all March Birthdays. All students with March birthdays are invited to dress up (no jeans or sweats) on Wednesday. They will be called forth to receive a special blessing from Fr. Tony and a gift from the office. APRIL Birthday Blessing has been moved to next week Wednesday, April 6th.
Tuesday, April 12th we will celebrate Holy Week with an Easter meal beginning at 1:00pm. We could use many hands to help. If you are available to help us out, (12:30-2:30) please contact Becky Kohl.
Finally, Please mark your calendars for our official K.I.S.S. (Kids Invite Someone Special) Day! We are planning KISS Day for Friday, April 29th. More details to follow, but we will begin with Mass at 8:00am. This has traditionally been Grandparents' day but all students are welcome to invite someone special if a grandparent is unavailable that day.
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel
